If you are happy with your Acurus, then fine. Enjoy the amp. For quite a few of us, our experience with it has been different, and what we are trying to do is share our own observations with it. You may or may not agree with our feedback, but that does not change things for us, nor for you. As I shared earlier, I owned both the L10/A250, and it just did not suit my taste. I found the amp fatiguing with CDs, but maybe for you it's different.

Have you had a chance to audition the newer ss amps? You may find out that the newer integrateds (Audio Analogue Puccini, Audio Refinement Complete) may provide a more refined sound. Better still, audition some tubed integrateds. The Jolida 302 is a good start at less than $1k.

BTW, that's the amp (Jolida) that replaced my Acurus at half the price I paid for the Acurus. Well, the Jolida is now replaced with another tubed amp (Jadis), but for me there's no looking back at ss amps.

Enjoy the music, that's all that counts - whether it's ss or tubes

Cheers!
